Two door is love, two door is life.

Make sure to press it exactly 120 times. 121 presses of the start-stop button is the code to self-destruct the transmission.

Mine's been sitting at the railyard within walking distance of my home for the last six days. Taking off on a road trip on March 2, so Ford has another week to get their act together.

Another datapoint for the west coast deliveries. Mine is at the railyard in Portland. Just waiting for delivery to the dealer now.

Misprint Edition: The people who got mismatched seats. I think that's rarer than the modular bumper + plastic bash plate Collector's Edition.

Tear tag live as of this morning. I was toward the tail end of the line, so I suspect most 1/26 or earlier blends have gotten to at least this stage by now. Hey, this Bronco is almost real now.

Modules finally popped for my 1/26 blend this morning. No tear tag.

My modules still haven't popped. I was #1661, so toward the end.

Not a major surprise, but my blend date was supposed to be 1/26 and there are no signs of life thus far. Just a data point for the rest of you.

Ford does not want to disincentivize the suckers customers that it has already convinced to pay for a special edition vehicle. This is similar to why they won't give you $2500 to switch from Wildtrak to a Base.

We do not know. My suspicion is that you will be allowed to order them spec'ed however you want. And if you do so at the right dealer (lots of allocation), you can even "jump the line" and get a MY23 with constrained items. But that's pure speculation on my part, based on three years of closely...

The two door MIC is not considered a constraint, at least not one severe enough for Ford to make it part of this offer. It's like the 2.7L in that regard. You may get scheduled earlier if you drop it, but that's the same as it's been for the last several years.

Are you dropping Sasquatch? That's the only thing eligible for the $2500 offer that could be on a 2D BD.

It's a RR station, not a city/town. Right outside Kansas City.

Ford's not going to stop building any of the options. The expensive options are high margin. They make money off them at 2021 prices. They'll probably allow new orders to be entered with any of the options too, and won't particularly care if that means a new order jumps ahead of a 2020 reservation.
